Shizzle.
I mistook Shane with the badass turbo bug for brian of convertable ghia fame.
How about this shane you give me a 10 second head start and then we can race?

Sounds to me like your all full of shit. Kirin, did you say you were 17? Shit, you were being breast fed by the neighbours goat when I was driving my first VW!! :wacko:  Now I feel old.

Somebody should post up that video of my bug vs a 60 bug with a 1600sp. I launched better but of course 1600 vs 1200 blew my door's off.
-Kirin
and somebody else should post the vid of you snapping your throttle cable cos you dumped the clutch off the line in first...  :lol:  
Sometimes I get the feeling the whole world is against me, but deep down I know that's not true. Some smaller countries are neutral.

Yeah I'm 17. Just wait till I'm James' age I'm bound to mature somewhat.. yeaaah right.
As for that throttle cable snapping well lets just say I'm the first person I've ever heard of toasting tranny mounts in a stock bug with a 1200cc..
That was funny I really thought I threw a rod.
So truthfully brian whats up with the ghia? Along with the carpet?

Oh yeah theres nothing like the super sexy feel of german square weave... ^_^
Just my upholstery guy brought it up since he was reading a vw mag. And made a comment about it.
Truth be told all the only race I will probably be beating James in is pushing my car down the track faster then him.

Kirin, Ive seen your upholstery guys work and if I were him I would keep his comments to himself. Maybe we could set up a car push class for you and James.

Looks like the local upholstery trade is heating up. You guys better hold onto your clients because I'm almost ready! You should be seeing some crazy custom work within a few months.

Now look what I've started... the auto trim smack talk smack down!?!?! Who's your upholstery guy, Kirin? I'm always up for checking out the competion. I know Brian and Gary have already set the local standard very high and I plan on continuing that tradition. I hopefully am picking up a machine this week so I should have my car done soon.

PS. Kirin, in response to your signature, there are even fewer of us that don't give a shit about vintage preservation and would rather just get out the sawzall!

Hes not a vw specific upholstery guy. Hes on vwvortex.
Anybody really interested in my upholstery guy can email me.
As the comment about my signature.. Everybody has opinions and well Vintage preservists are a dying breed. Luckily my whole \"Vintage Nazi/ Nothing radical just completly practical\" Is only in me.
Of course we all know James wants to be just like me :P
